| - Something new and different in Las Vegas?? AWESOME!! I highly recommend going to see this show. Seriously.
This could definitely be a 5 star experience. Why only 4 stars? The show is taking place inside Light Nightclub, which isn't the best option, seating wise. We were seated in Section 302, in a large booth. There was plenty of seating available, yet we were placed in a booth with 2 other people. We were also facing away from the stage and would've been quite uncomfortable if we hadn't moved.
That being said, they make it clear at the beginning of the show that you are welcome to move to better seats if they are available when the show starts. We decided to move back instead of closer to the stage, and sat in a large booth in section 402. They also welcome (and ask) you to take pictures and videos during the show, which is refreshing and a smart marketing tool.
Now for the good stuff - this show is AMAZING!! If you are a fan of Baz Luhrman or musicals of any kind, please do yourself a favor and go see this!! The performers are immensely talented....The writing/choreography and music are beyond fantastic.
Basically, this is a combination of Moulin Rouge, Romeo + Juliet and The Great Gatsby. There are scenes from each of them, mashed into each other and combined with current music. Sounds crazy, huh? Trust me, it was really well done. There were times where we got the chills or were standing up and clapping.
If you are looking for a unique show, I strongly suggest checking this out. Words can't express how impressed I was with it! I believe it's only here for a short time, so don't miss out!
Side note: You must be 21 to attend the show, as it is inside the night club. Although there is no food avaialable, the bar is open and there are servers going from table to table as well - but expect nightclub pricing on drinks. Also, I am not sure where would be the best place to sit. There were front row tables along the stage, but so much happens during the show (they utilize the entire area), you'd spend a lot of time looking behind you. I would almost say sitting at one of the ends would give you the best overall view.
